Game Preview
The Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers vie for the distinction of being the first semifinalist in the NBA in-season tournament when they duel Monday night in Indianapolis.
Indiana earned the home court based on being one of two Eastern Conference teams to make a perfect run through its tournament group play, having dispatched of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Philadelphia 76ers, Atlanta Hawks and Detroit Pistons.
Boston also won its group, but needed a point-differential tie-breaker to get the nod over the Orlando Magic and Brooklyn Nets after all three had a loss. The Celtics, in fact, were blown out 113-96 at Orlando, requiring them to pour it on the Chicago Bulls in a 124-97 finale that tipped the point-differential scales.
